the whole nmbclusters stuff:
mars# netstat -m | grep "mbuf clusters"
130/542/672/25600 mbuf clusters in use (current/cache/total/max)
the above is after 26hrs uptime ...
Is there something else that will trigger/generate the above error message?
ENOBUFS is a common error in the network stack reflecting a lack of free
memory or exceeding a system, user, or process resource limit. While the
classic source of ENOBUFS is mbuf or mbuf cluster exhaustion, there are
several other sources of the error. For example, you will get ENOBUFS back if
you run out of sockets, or a process tries to increase the size of socket
buffers beyond the user resource limit. I'd look at all the output of netstat
-m, not just clusters. I'd also look at kern.ipc.numopensockets and compare
it to kern.ipc.maxsockets.
